Step 1
Pat chicken dry. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Sear chicken 6–7 minutes per side without moving until golden and cooked through (165°F).
Step 3
Slice baguette in half lengthwise. Toast cut-side down in the same skillet until golden, about 90 seconds per side.
Step 4
Stir mayo and sriracha together. Spread on both baguette halves.
Step 5
Slice chicken against the grain. Layer on bottom half: lettuce, chicken, pickled daikon, cucumber, chili, cilantro.
Step 6
Close the sandwich. Cut in half and serve immediately.
